Now That They’re Free, Venezuelan Men Want the World to Know What They Endured in CECOT
10mon 22d ago in usa@midwest.social from www.propublica.orgI'm sitting here trying to find words. Outrage, disgust and deep sorrow just don't seem to cut it. More than anything, these men deserve justice and reparation for what was done to them - and the countless others who are enduring the same treatment this very day. I pray that the criminals in our government are held accountable for this grave sin one day.
Arkansas 'Whites-Only' Town Revives Far-Right Ideals: Return to Segregation?
10mon 23d ago in usa@midwest.social from thedailyguardian.comOk, well what would convince you, then? What criteria are you looking for exactly before you acknowledge that this is a dangerous thing happening in our country? Are you waiting for a town charter from the state, perhaps? I'm not really sure why you're fixated on it being a 'town'. Like it's not cause for concern until they suddenly have paved roads and municipal buildings? I'm just not understanding your logic, here.
I believe you are incorrect in your assessment of the situation.
This is not fake news. This is actually happening, and they are actually seeking to build a 'town'. It is still in the beginning stages, but that is their stated goal. AND, they have plans to expand:
Now I don't know anything about the OP's source. But I can tell you that this is being reported by MSNBC, the Independent and others.

10mon 24d ago in upliftingnews from www.oklahoman.comWhile I understand and agree with your enthusiasm, I don't believe this is the right channel for this sort of post.
I've had second thoughts about posts I've made in the past (usually because they proved to be unpopular with the majority), and have deleted my post. Why sit there and rack up downvotes for no reason? Now if a post I've made was unpopular, but it generated fair and good-faith discussion, I'll keep it up.

10mon 25d ago in lemmybewholesome from quokk.auWhen someone leaves you a home for nothing when most of the people around you cannot afford one, that is 'wealth'. If I did not have to worry about rent, healthcare and car payments, that would make me wealthy - because it is the wealthy who do not have these concerns to the same degree as the majority of the population. Generational wealth is also a great way to keep the 'undesirables' out of a community - and has been used so multiple times in the past. It's one of the reasons why people from poor families statistically end up just as, or even more poor than their parents.
That's the real question, isn't it? When our employers demand more of our time than we get to spend with our actual families, the take-it-slow life just isn't a possibility. Unless you're independently wealthy.

10mon 25d ago in usa@midwest.social from www.oklahoman.comI am convinced that religious extremism creates the very conditions that lead to the sins they are trying to avoid. Sex outside of marriage is a sin. Nudity outside of marriage is a sin. Sex inside marriage should be missionary-position only. A woman's body is sinful. Thinking about sex is a sin. Is it any wonder why all of these zealots end up doing the very things they rail against? Have your religious delusions if you will, but biology is going to win that battle one way or the other.
